Vehicle tracking system has been extensively used for fleet management, asset tracking, surveillance, stolen vehicle recovery and many more. Advances in modern technologies like ubiquitous computing, Internet of Things (IoT) coupled with the availability of the economical hardware building blocks is creating a new wave of vehicular tracking systems. In this work we present VERTIGUO (VEhiculaR TrackInG Using Opensource approach), a GPS,GSM and GPRS technology based vehicular tracking system, that is accurate, robust, flexible, economical and feature rich. Unlike the traditional COTS (Commercial Of The Shelf) vehicular tracking system, that are closed and confined to smartphone and PC's, our vehicular tracking system infrastructure is open sourced and is available for the research fraternity to test, experiment and add more features. The hardware (HW) is developed by leveraging our expertize on open source HW platform. The software (SW) infrastructure can track the vehicles through a web interface on smartphones and PC or through an SMS on normal GSM based feature phones. This application will work for all mobile phones provided they are on a GSM network. In this paper we describe our system architecture, prototype and results obtained in our field trials.

Expansion joint gaps are the gaps which are deliberately left between the rail ends to allow for expansion of the rails in hot weather. Over gapping of these end to end gaps often result in derailments. Therefore in order to prevent dangerous situations and ensuring safety rail lines are periodically inspected. Rail inspection in many countries especially in third world countries, like Bangladesh, is performed manually by a trained human operator who periodically walks along the track searching for visual anomalies. Such manual inspection is lengthy, laborious and subjective. This paper presents a machine vision-based technique to automatically measure the length of rail line expansion joint gaps using morphological processing. This approach has confirmed to successfully detect scenarios of different condition with an accuracy of 89%, thus proving its robustness.

Track circuit in a railway signaling system can detect a train, while speed code and other kinds of information are interchanged through a track circuit. Rail can be used as a part of a track circuit. In an audio frequency track circuit, speedup and comfortable ride are offered. Some kinds of LRT do not have track circuits and do not use a fixed block system, however. Instead of a fixed track circuit, they use a virtual track circuit using software techniques. In this paper, a hybrid track circuit (HTC) is proposed using RFID antenna and reader on the cab and RFID tag on the sleeper. Also HTC is composed of software on the cab computer. Cab computers are a hot standby system for reliability and safety. 900MHz frequency is used and Eurobalise specification for housing is applied. Meanwhile, a simulator for testing a HTC was made. The maximum speed of the simulator was 500km/h. The proposed HTC can detect tags correctly for 500km/h high speed and constitutes an HTC well. The field testing of HTC was carried out at the Daebul test line. It is showed a potential for 80km/h. Soon a highspeed line test will be carried out at the Osong test line. HTC combined with tachometer can be used for ATO, ATP, and ATC application. Simple and low-cost HTC can be a key part of a railway signalling system.

Developing an Electric Formula car has its own challenges associated with it, perhaps what convolutes the case is the proper safety measures that needs to be in place to ensure the well being of the driver. A formula car must perform well as to achieve extremely high speed in a really small time frame, and also keep a tab on proper working of all the components which otherwise could be catastrophic. While Mechanical parts have their own safety standards and measures in place, electrical parts and safety designing should follow the stringent rules of FSAE. The paper discusses an innovative way in which safety systems of a highly safe Formula electric vehicle was achieved by Analog circuits designing and Electronic Control Unit (ECU) programming, taking into consideration different possibilities and at the same time conforming to the uncompromising rules of FSAE.

With the introduction of camera based ADAS systems; there is a need to consider the systems design in terms of functional safety. This is especially so in cases where system image identification results in decision to control the vehicle like in autonomous braking. Firstly, a review of functional safety is followed by a safety analysis of a camera based forward collision warning system. Potential hazards and safety goals will be described. A functional safety concept of the ECU based on multi core MCU is introduced based on image data flow from camera sensor to MCU. Safety mechanisms are introduced at each stage ensuring the correct processed image and decision based on that image. An actual MCU based design that implements these safety mechanisms is also described.

Smooth varying data is hard to classify/divide to separate classes since there is small separation. Large number of close and adjacent poses create smooth varying manifolds. Manual class formation by selecting different data points from entire database into different training classes will affect the error rate in smooth varying data classification. This paper proposes classification of smooth varying data based on clustering and discriminant analysis. The clustering process results in different clusters which can be used for classification based on discriminant analysis. The automated class formation based on the data points in the manifold reduces effort of manual clustering and it gives very comparable results. This pose estimation can be used as a measure of driver distraction monitoring.

The challenges in generating minimum time trajectory and control for generic quadrocopter flying through sophisticated and unknown environment are explored in this paper. The proposed method uses convex programming technique to optimize polynomial splines, which are numerically stable for high-order including large number of segments and easily formulated for efficient computation. Moreover, exploiting the differential flatness of system, these polynomial trajectories encode the dynamics and constraints of the vehicle and decouple them from trajectory planning. The framework is fast enough to be performed in real time and results in solution which is close to time optimal. As control inputs are computed from the generated trajectory in each update, they are applicable to achieve closed-loop control similar to model predictive controller.

The diagnostic tester is presented here to read out the contents of external EEPROM of an EMS ECU. The tester and the EMS ECU are built with Unified Diagnostic Service (UDS) on Controller Area Network (CAN) as per ISO 14229-1 and ISO 15765-3. When the tester requests the UDS on CAN bus, the ECU invokes the respective routines. The micro-controller of ECU uses Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) protocol to read out the contents of EEPROM. The ECU stores the contents read from external EEPROM into a buffer and that will be transmitted on CAN bus as response to the tester request. In this paper, the work flow and the algorithms are provided as, how the tester requests the UDS commands on CAN bus and how the EMS ECU interprets this command to get the contents of EEPROM for the tester, as per ISO 14229-1 and ISO 15765-3.

Today society strongly depends on transportability of both people and goods and is expected to grow further in the future. Along with this growth in number of vehicles on road, need of safety increases. By various analysis it was found that improper visual at sharp turns during night time may lead to accidents. Active safety systems can be designed to avoid these types of accidents and increase degree of safety in automobiles. In order to facilitate all the vehicles running on road with dynamic lighting system, this work aims to design and develop a cheap and effective Universal Automatic Headlight System. This system will try to control the beam angle using LED's based on Steering Wheel rotation. This will be done by a relay circuit that switches the LED bulbs glow from 10, 20 and 30 deg. LED bulbs will be used due to their low power consumption and high power output characteristic. This system is easily implemented on the bumper and will also take care of the glare problem faced by the opposite vehicle driver.

Programmable robots have immense potential in transforming the way daily routines are performed. Interaction with our surroundings can be greatly enhanced by deploying these robots. In this paper, a dynamic way of programming a robot that traverses a fed input path is presented. A scaling mechanism that can map a large room onto the user's held hand device has been introduced. Paper also presents an intuitive way of measuring the speed and position of the robot using basic IR sensors. In a nutshell, robot is aware of its speed, position and is flexible to travel in any path specified by the user in real time. Applications are far flung and the robot could potentially aid the semi-autonomous navigation of vehicles. Results of the proposed methodology could lay foundation for building a robot with abilities rather than tasks. It could change the way the robots are conceived and utilized.
